The styling very strongly looks modern to me. I would not be surprised if it was 20th century. It is exceedingly unlikely that it comes from an antique cup hilt rapier; the metal is wrong, and the design pattern is wrong. Additionally, it looks too small to be a rapier hilt. It may not even be part of a sword hilt at all.

Most likely something from Marto. They use cast baskets, and change the external design depending on marketing, Captain Hook, Three Musketeers, etc. and also make "miniature" versions for use as letter openers or what not. Some versions were sold in gold, bronze, and pewter finishes.ferrum ferro acuitur et homo exacuit faciem amici sui
